Commentary on Psalms 17:6
David's confidence in prayer—'I call upon You, for You will answer me'—demonstrates assurance grounded in God's character. The request to 'incline Your ear' uses intimate language suggesting attentive listening. This anticipates Jesus' teaching on persistent prayer (Luke 18:1-8) and John's assurance that God hears His children (1 John 5:14-15). Reformed theology grounds prayer confidence in God's covenant faithfulness.
